If a non-total loss home incident happens remember to take photos of any damaged areas including personal property is involved.
If your home is completely destroyed or unlivable due to an incident, it is important to report it ASAP, so we can get a place for you to stay.
And if personal property is damaged in any claim make a note of the total estimated loss value of those items.
